図７は、同一の操作対象／同一の変数利用に基づいて排他区間を決定する処理について説明するための図である。
図７（Ａ）において、運用操作部品２２−１，２３−１について、操作対象サーバは「サーバＡ」で同じであり、サービスも「サービスＸ」で同じである。この場合、排他制御部１１０は、運用操作部品２２−１，２３−１について［排他区間：Ａ＋Ｘ］と決定する。運用操作部品２４−１について、操作対象サーバはサーバＡである。この場合、排他制御部１１０は、運用操作部品２４−１について［排他区間：Ａ］と決定する。運用操作部品２５−１，２６−１について、操作対象サーバはサーバＢである。この場合、排他制御部１１０は、運用操作部品２５−１，２６−１について［排他区間：Ｂ］と決定する。 FIG. 7 is a diagram for explaining processing for determining an exclusive section based on the same operation target / use of the same variable.
In FIG. 7A, for the operation components 22-1 and 23-1, the operation target server is the same as “Server A”, and the service is the same as “Service X”. In this case, the exclusive control unit 110 determines [exclusive section: A + X] for the operation components 22-1 and 23-1. For the operation component 24-1, the operation target server is the server A. In this case, the exclusive control unit 110 determines [exclusive section: A] for the operation component 24-1. For the operation components 25-1 and 26-1 , the operation target server is the server B. In this case, the exclusive control unit 110 determines [exclusive section: B] for the operation components 25-1 and 26-1 .

各排他区間におけるロックの競合関係は、排他区間名が以下のいずれかの場合である。
・排他を獲得する排他区間名が、排他獲得済みの排他区間名と少なくとも部分一致する。
・排他獲得済みの排他区間名が、排他を獲得する排他区間名と少なくとも部分一致する。 The lock conflict relationship in each exclusive section is when the exclusive section name is one of the following.
-The name of the exclusive section for which exclusion is acquired at least partially matches the exclusive section name that has already been acquired.
-The exclusive section name that has been acquired has at least a partial match with the exclusive section name that acquires the exclusive.

従って、排他制御部１１０は、排他を獲得する排他区間名が、排他獲得済みの排他区間名と少なくとも部分一致するか、または、排他獲得済みの排他区間名が、排他を獲得する排他区間名と少なくとも部分一致するかを判定する。排他を獲得する排他区間名が、排他獲得済みの排他区間名と少なくとも部分一致すると判定した場合、排他制御部１１０は、排他ロックが競合関係にあると判定する。また、排他獲得済みの排他区間名が、排他を獲得する排他区間名と少なくとも部分一致すると判定した場合、排他制御部１１０は、排他ロックが競合関係にあると判定する。 Therefore, the exclusive control unit 110 determines that the exclusive section name for acquiring the exclusion at least partially matches the exclusive section name that has been acquired for exclusive use, or the exclusive section name for which the exclusive acquisition has been acquired is the exclusive section name for acquiring the exclusive control. It is determined whether or not at least partly matches. When it is determined that the exclusive section name that acquires the exclusion is at least partially coincident with the exclusive section name that has been acquired, the exclusive control unit 110 determines that the exclusive lock is in a competitive relationship. In addition, when it is determined that the exclusive section name that has been acquired is at least partially coincident with the exclusive section name that acquires the exclusion, the exclusive control unit 110 determines that the exclusive lock is in a competitive relationship.

上記（ＩＶ），（Ｖ）の処理について、以下の図１１〜図１６を用いて説明する。

Further, while the exclusive right (execution right) described later is acquired, the workflow can execute processing.

ワークフロー管理テーブル１３１において、運用操作部品５３に対応する「バックアップ資源」の項目には、設定変更前のデータが格納されている。排他制御部１１０は、ワークフロー管理テーブル１３１から設定変更前のデータを読み出し、読み出したデータを操作対象に設定し直すという設定変更操作５３ａを実行する。これにより、操作対象の状態は運用操作部品５３の実行前の状態に戻る。 In the workflow management table 131, data before setting change is stored in the item “backup resource” corresponding to the operation component 53. The exclusive control unit 110 executes a setting change operation 53a that reads the data before the setting change from the workflow management table 131 and resets the read data as an operation target. As a result, the state of the operation target returns to the state before the operation component 53 is executed.
